Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

Almost one month has passed since release. In retrospect....

  • This is by far the best Smash ever. Like, I don't even know how they will top this.

  • Pretty freakin' good; I have a few qualms over things like internet play, balancing issues, etc.

  • It's ok, but [insert Smash game here] is better.

  • I'd rather play Parcheesi.

Smash Bros trailer starts, a music starts playing...
What music would make you HYPE?
This (or anything else from the game)
Unless they pull a Rosalina and somehow end up advertising a newcomer from a totally different series again. :glare:

Earlier someone said it's not Sakurai's style to give away who the newcomer is from the get go.

Cloud's reveal trailer started with iconic Final Fantasy 7 music (which is probably where that fake leak got the idea).

Little Mac's reveal trailer was so very obviously for Little Mac as well. Punch Out music and themes from the beginning.

Isabelle's trailer also had her on screen from the get go.

So yeah he could very well do that with Geno or any other potential remaining newcomer.

Marketing is not meant for people who will already buy the game + more. The marketing has been rather good and created a lasting impression with the “Everyone is Here” slogan. Why would I market to you if I know you already buying into my product? Sakurai marketed enough to thos people with directs / demos/ etc.

With Isabelle half of the community thought it was a new Animal Crossing game while Cloud...some didn’t recognize or know the music playing at the beginning (also, Palutena had one of the most obvious reveal trailers in Smash 4)

I honestly do not believe the lack of news means anything regarding how the game is coming along. I understand that people are excited for the next reveal and want it to come soon (I do to!), but in all fairness, 8.8 was not that long ago. I will admit Nintendo could have handled pacing a little differently, but would that truly be any better? If they had content more spread out, then all you'd have is people complaining they aren't showing enough. It's kind of a lose lose, TBH.

damn sonic still struggles to kill a lot

ridley's side B is extremely escapable from the looks of it

both players were making a lot of predictable plays though they both had a decent mixup game.

I'm only halfway through the video but this matchup is really interesting to see. It's not as bad for Ridley as I once thought it might be.

I know you're reading this. Vote 2B.
GAME:

-------------------------

For me , this one:
For me? Slow build-up. Smash logo on the screen, then the shot transitions to a field full of fallen old buildings, colorful green grass, and old remains. There's three characters chasing each other across said field, one throwing obstacles at the two chasing him/her while the other do their best to keep up.

Then, suddenly, the shot changes to a silhouette coming towards them, and this kicks in...
https://youtu.be/U9yznfbrXbE
Just kidding. It'd be neat though. If it did happen, it could be a fake-out.

Anyway, shot changes to the feet of a silhouette running, etc., and this slowly kicks in.
https://youtu.be/-QmXed3XQfk

Not happening, but it'd be a dream come true.

Y'all, just link your videos.

To be fair though the most important thing you missed was a weird YuGiOh fever dream.

Wow, some people sound really eager to see Ken and Incineroar revealed as soon as possible. Who knew they had so many supporters.:upsidedown:

Funny you, I remember clearly the chat being unable to recognize ****ING BOMBER OPENING MISSION and like most people though it was Wolf.

Never in my life I was so triggered to look at the chat, and even worst to look a the reactions.

Like, the thing is too, if someone embeds a video and someone quotes it with another embedded video, that's not two embedded videos...it's three. The original post, the responder's post, and the video inside the quote of the responder's post.

Now multiply that by however many people reply and bam, people with slower or mobile devices are ****ed.

Ok guys maybe let’s cool it with the video embeds? My mobile browser is starting to stress itself...and it can randomly refresh “because a problem occurred” and log me out in the process

Maybe stick to links for the rest of this page?
Oops, sorry about that guys. :(

When I posted mine, I hadn't seen all the other ones. I've since edited my original post, which is here:

There are tons that would make me hype (too many to list), but if I had to pick just one, I'd pick this:

Like, to put it into perspective, at the time of writing there are currently five videos embedded on this page alone.

GAME:

Smash Bros trailer starts, a music starts playing...
What music would make you HYPE?
Any of these:
Final Hours (Majora's Mask)
Cornered (Phoenix Wright)
Discussion -HEAT UP- (Danganronpa) (I ended up starting to unironically love the idea of Danganronpa ending up in Smash somehow)
Scuttle Town (Shantae)
Mimiga Town (Cave Story)
Tabuu (Subspace Emissary) (I'd be hype if he made it in as a fighter, sue me)
Head Cha-La (Instrumental) (Dragon Ball Z) (I am not kidding. I would scream.)
Urbosa's Theme (Breath of the Wild)
The Royal Battle (Pokemon Sun and Moon) (Masked Royal for Smash)
Spiral Mountain (Banjo-Kazooie)
And My Name's Booster (SMRPG)

I have more on my wishlist than I thought I did.

Imagine if I was an ass and embedded all of these.

My dream reveal would go like this.

The sound of a single trumpet playing a relatively high pitched Do.
Daaaaaaaa-da da da dada daaaaaaa
[Camera scrolls through Green fields]
(Now a trumpet chorus plays lower pitched Mi)
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun
[Super Smash Bros logo appears in white Background]

Again
Do
Daaaaaaaa-da da da dada daaaaaaa
[Camera pans through blue skies with birds flying together]
(Now lower pitched Mi)
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun
["X" appears in white Background]

Solo trumpet goes:
Do, dodo re, rere do, with build up (gave up here)

Slimes pop out of the bushes
[Dragon Quest logo appears in white Background]

A slashing silouette comes out of nowhere splitting the slimes in half.
Camera pans up. It's Erdrick sheathing back his sword on his back.
"Erdrick draws near"

*Footage of basic neutral combos on Link.
*Footage of Erdrick's aerials using different weapons on Shulk.
*Footage of Erdrick's magic attack system and MP useage on Ness.
*Erdrick and Cloud fighting back to back against FE characters.
Then Ryu and Megaman land to their left.
Sonic and Bayonetta to their right.
*Erdrick beating DQ enemies in adventure mode.
*Slime hopping on Erdrick's head as a taunt.
*Erdrick showing off Chimera Wing for recovery move (works like a non-explosive Warp Star)
*Alt colors are protagonists from other DQ games.
*Erdrick uses final smash Whistle, where every monster from the DQ series stampedes over the enemy, led by slime.
*Super Smash Bros logo appears again.
*Erdrick walking in a forest, when Magic Marionettes appear. He rushes to slice them, when he notices one is left in the shadows.
Before he lands a slash, the ahadowy marionette dodge's out of the way.

Geno gives it a whirl.
*Footage of Geno in action
*Smash Bros logo X Dragon Quest appear, and then "X Super Mario RPG" logo is added.


Well, that's my dreamed final reveal.

Same.... Same. But I believe it would be the same reaction for everyone, whenever you like it, or hate it, people would go crazy.
I went from wanting him in to break the biggest rule people are still following, to wanting him in because I genuinely would love to see it.

This ain't meant to start an argument, so to anyone reading (not you Nekoo), if you read this post and decide you wanna antagonize me, you should reevaluate your whole life.

I'll go ahead and list ten songs that would probably make me the most hyped aside from my previous Chrono Trigger one (in link form):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpluvYmlbU4 (Battling KOS-MOS; KOS-MOS :p)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQl7wDCKXSM (Fight against an Armed Boss; Geno)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00mcJhWhLGs (Uncontrollable; Elma)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0mwOjhsDgY (Vim and Vigor; Sora)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dhtGKaEZM8 (Incoming!; Morag preferably, but Rex & Pyra most likely)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfp9DvU5-Hs (Pursuit ~ Casting Magic; Professor Layton and Phoenix Wright Co-Reveal)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRVAj-Vk9IU (Big Top Bop; Dixie, though not a likely one for her reveal)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9awssAXk-7w (Life Will Change; Joker)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvJnZ_VnSLc (Twister; Neku)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozLqx3EboU4 (Dance Through the Danger; Shantae)

That took longer than I expected it to, but these reveals would probably hype me up the most should any of them happen. :laugh:

I would completely lose it if I heard this theme start up.



On the impossible side of things, I'd probably faint if I heard this.
Do you mind turning your video embeds into links?
As of right now, embedding videos into your posts makes the site harder to use for people on mobile.

Every time you embed a video, a mobile user dies.

Please, think of the poor mobile users. Link your videos instead of embedding them.

Thank you.
